Q

Adipose Tissue: Major physiologic function

Liver fat metabolism - why is this important?

A

because all cells contain some unsaturated fats synthesized by the liver

Degradation of fatty acids into usable units of energy
Synthesis of triglycerides from carbohydrates and proteins
Synthesis of other lipids from fatty acids (particularly cholesterol and phospholipids)

Q

Is CAD a dependent or indépendant factor with obesity?

A

independent

22
Q

Definition of HTN in obesity

A

SBP > 140, DBP > 90, or both

2 times risk in obesity

23
Q

Why is there a 2X risk of HTN in obesity?

A
Increased blood viscosity
Hyperinsulinemia
Increased mineralocorticoids
Sodium reabsorption
Compression of kidneys
Impaired sodium excretion
RAA activation
24
Q

Respiratory pathophysiology

Why is there decreased compliance?

A

Pressure from abdominal, diaphragmatic , and thoracic fat

25
Q

What is the F/V loop pattern?

A

Restrictive

26
Q

Inhibited lung inflation leads to
Decreased:
Increased:
No change:

A

Decreased: FRC, ERV, VC, TLC
Increased: dead space
No change: RV, CC, FVC, FEV1

27
Q

Why is there a decreased FRC to < closing capacity?

A

Increased dead space, vq mismatch, shunting, hypoxemia

28
Q

What else does obesity lead to with respiratory?

A

Hypoventilation, hypercarbia, acidosis

29
Q

OSA rates are ____ portion to BMI

A

directly

30
Q

Risk factors for OSA in obesity

A

BMI > 30
abdominal fat distribution
large neck girth

31
Q

Definition of OSA

A

Excessive episodes of apnea (10 seconds) and hypopnea

Estimated that 80%-95% are undiagnosed

32
Q

How do episodes of apnea work in OSA

A

Obstruction –> hypoxia and hypercarbia –> surge of muscles to open airway –> period of hyperventilation –> reverses hypercarbia –> normal breathing –> start all over

33
Q

In OSA, > 5 episodes per hour or 30 per night

this will lead to what?

A

Hypoxia, hypercapnia, systemic and pulmonary hypertension, and cardiac arrythmias

34
Q

In pre-op, what questions should you ask about sleep apnea?

A

ask about sleeping patterns, snoring or apnea, arousals, diurnal sleepiness

35
Q

What is the gold standard test for OSA

A

polysomnography (PSG)

36
Q

STOP-BANG

A
Snoring
Tiredness
Observed apnea
High BP
BMI (greater than 35)
Age (greater than 50)
Neck circumference (>40cm/15.75in)
Gender (male)
37
Q

Surgery centers should not do patients with a BMI >

A

45

38
Q

What is obese hypoventilation (pickwickian syndrome)?

A

Inappropriate and sudden somnolence, OSA, Hypoxia, Hypercapnia, arterial hypoxemia, cyanosis-induced polycythemia, respiratory acidosis, pulmonary hypertension, Right sided heart failure

39
Q

How does pickwickian lead to right sided heart failure

A

HPV –> pulmonary HTN –> cor pulmonale

40
Q

GI risks with obesity

A

GERD, gallstones, pancreatitis
Fatty liver disease – 3% develop cirrhosis
NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease)

41
Q

DM risk with obesity

A

80% of NIDDM pts are obese

Risk linear to BMI

Q

Ortho risk with obesity

A
